That
Seville is the birthplace of Flamenco
is an undeniable fact. Because of this, the city has given birth to
some of the greatest figures in the history of Flamenco. Even to this
day Seville plays host to great Tablaos
where you can enjoy anunforgetable night of great Flamenco.

In
today´s article, we review some of the
greatest singers, dancers and musicians in all of Flamenco,
originating from Seville:

Antonio
Carrión: Son
of the singer ´Carrión de Mairena´ this Seville born legend has
flamenco in his blood. He began his career at 13 when he recorded his
first song, and has since toured all over Europe combining
traditional elements of Flamenco with his more modern, innovative
style.

Antonio
´sandpit´: Native
to the Triana district of Sevill, ´sandpit´ got his name from his
original profession, hauling sand by the Guadalquivir river. His
signature moves are the ´soleá,´ the ´seguria´and the
´martinete.´

Aurora
Vargas: Hailing
from the Macarena district of Seville, this artist is adept at both
the singing and the dancing aspects of Flamenco. Specialising in the
Tango and the Bulerías, she played a role in the movie ´Flamenco´by
Carlos Saura.

Thanks
to these great figures in Flamenco, even today, one of the greatest
tourist attractions in Spain is to enjoy a flamenco show in Seville.

The
Barrio de Santa Cruz is one of the most beautiful squares in all of
Seville. Formerly the old Jewish quarter this area is now home to
some of the city´s best bars and restaurants. Notably though, Santa
Cruz is also home to some of the city´s best Flamenco shows. The
Flamenco is an art form as typically Spanish as tapas and a trip to
Spain, especially Seville would not be complete without attending a
Santa Cruz Flamenco show.

Having
some of the oldest flamenco bars in the city, the Santa Cruz has all
the experience required to put on a truly spectacular and
unforgettable show. With singers, dancers and guitarists from the
best schools all over Spain, a Santa Cruz Flamenco show is
truly an unmissable experience.
